This ridiculous notion that people will get kicked for this is getting tiresome. I'm not trying to speedrun sub 80 content, the only time I've seen people kicked is during level cap when people should know their jobs and not hinder the group. We all know the leveling process is mind numbingly boring and lvl sync especially hits certain jobs hard like BLM.

Also, I don't know where people are getting this idea that sprouts would be traumatized by max lvl players but I feel in most situations it would actually have the opposite effect. Imagine that you are a sprout lancer in stone vigil debating if you should keep subbed due to the new player experience being so tedious. Now imagine that the sprout lancer gets grouped with a max lvl DRG and witnesses this person destroy dragons from orbit, do crazy acrobatics, and summon dragon energy blasts.

Wouldn't this motivate you to keep playing after witnessing your job's true power in action? Wouldn't it be fun for a tiny thaumaturge to witness a BLM lay waste to fates using flares and fouls? I don't care that the sprout would be doing the same damage as me with only 3 abilities, fun is whats important to me.
